This is still quite experimental and would like to receive comments about it.
The main point is to be able to copy, in the file browser, from a videodb:// source to a "hard" destination.
The use case being to be able to export files from the database for mobile use, being android, rpi or other, even non-xbmc.
Main points of attention:
This is not stricto sensu mandatory, but I think it is, both for consistency with the music db and with the url concept, a good idea.
Obviously, it is quite dangerous and is likely to break any piece of code assuming a videodb url without extension. Any hint on where this is likely to break is welcome.
Thanks for giving feedback
